‘Anarchy for the Masses,’ guide to ‘The Invisibles,’ hits stores this April from the Disinformation Company

“ANARCHY FOR THE MASSES is a stunning achievement. Just fabulous, both a
fitting exegesis and tribute to the series.”

­Steven Grant, Whisper

“ANARCHY FOR THE MASSES dares to romp with the living, knob-encrusted
monster that is the six-year-long INVISIBLES experiment. If, as intended,
the series is a stained paper section through the body of some vast, soft
intricate entity made of time, then ANARCHY is an historic first probe, a
plucky Voyager bringing back and making sense of the many dripping,
weird-angled splinters and fully authorized facets found deep in the hide
and guts of my captive mega-terrestrial.”

­Grant Morrison

Grant Morrison’s prophetic, epoch-making graphic novel ‘The Invisibles’
madeas important a contribution to the counterculture of the 1990s and
2000s as ‘Naked Lunch’ and ‘On the Road’ did for the 1950s and 60s. Like
those works, The Invisibles has a dedicated cult following and is now
beginning to be recognized in the mainstream.

Just as ‘The Invisibles’ is a comprehensive guide to life in the 21st
century, Patrick Neighly and Kereth Cowe-Spigai’s ANARCHY FOR THE MASSES
is a comprehensive guide to The Invisibles (similar to The Sandman
Companion by Hy Bender): it includes not only full annotation to every
issue, and critical analyses, but also exclusive, extensive interviews
with:

Designed in traditional graphic novel format, the book will fit perfectly
on a shelf with the collected editions of ‘The Invisibles’.

‘The Invisibles’ is a direct dialogue with, and would appeal to fans of,
‘The Illuminatus! Trilogy’ by Robert Anton Wilson, ‘The Matrix’, the
novels of Philip K. Dick, Aleister Crowley, ‘Ecstasy Club’ by Douglas
Rushkoff, the speculative works of William S. Burroughs and H.P.
Lovecraft, the cult British TV show ‘The Prisoner’, the Jerry Cornelius
stories of Michael Moorcock, The Beatles, and the world as we know it.
